For applicants from the European Union (and other visa-free countries), JPRestaurants can secure a work permit for six months, and arrange accommodation. As a company, we look for enthusiastic, friendly, and personable team members who have a passion for great service and show a dedication to the smaller details. Experience in a premium-casual restaurant is highly desirable, but we believe a warm personality and keen organisational skills are equally as important. |

Cash tips are shared equally between restaurant staff. Our employees also have access to a generous benefits package, including: • Meals provided while on duty • Staff discount across our restaurant and café businesses • Christmas Day and Boxing Day off It's important to say that we've moved away from tips, and for good reason: our team's remuneration is written into contracts and bonus schemes, and isn't reliant on gratuities - for more information go to https://jprestaurants.com/news/living-wage-employers |
| Right to work: For this advertised role, we invite applications from both candidates who have an immediate right to work in Jersey or the United Kingdom (UK or Irish passport, EU Settled or Pre-Settled Status, or Indefinite Leave to Remain), and candidates from visa-free countries (including all of the European Union, and many North American countries). For visa-free countries, no visa is required for a contract and work permit of up to six months. |
| Contract and hours: This is a fixed-term, full-time role (with minimum, contracted hours of an average of 40 hours per week across the month). Our teams are working up to 50 hours per week during busy periods, with all overtime paid. Fixed-term contracts for nationals of visa-free countries are for up to six months, with start dates of either April or May 2025. A work-life balance is important to everyone in the business and, while we appreciate when colleagues can help out further in busier periods, we strive to ensure that everyone works a 5-day week on a regular basis. |
| Accommodation: The Company can arrange accommodation for those moving to Jersey. Accommodation is more expensive in Jersey than other parts of the British Isles, and accommodation in the local market ranges from approximately £800 (single room) to £1,500 (one-bedroom flat) per month. |
| Our business: JPRestaurants operates restaurants and cafes in Jersey (Channel Islands, British Isles), serving fresh, innovative, and healthy food to thousands of customers and visitors each year. Our restaurants offer premium-casual dining experiences in unique and captivating settings: Oyster Box, on the edge of St Brelade’s Bay, Banjo, a grand brasserie in the heart of St Helier, and Jersey Crab Shack, also on the beach of St Brelade’s Bay. Our Café Ubé outlets (located at Jersey Airport, Elizabeth Ferry Terminal, and across St Helier) serve a range of coffees, hot and cold drinks, and fresh and homemade Grab & Go breakfast and lunch items. We offer fantastic choice for customers with allergies and dietary requirements, and provide our teams with detailed specifications and information for addressing queries. Across all of our restaurants and cafes, we’ve placed an emphasis on digitalisation and processes, in order to enhance our customers’ experience, ensure our service runs smoothly, and build a better working environment for our colleagues. JPRestaurants has over 75 years of history, starting in 1946 as a small, family-owned pottery studio which become one of the Island's busiest and most popular tourist attractions. The coffee bar on the site of the ceramics factory and showroom was the beginning of Jersey Pottery Restaurants (which is now called JPRestaurants), which is still family-owned and managed by the third generation. As an established and popular local business, we look to work for the benefit of our community and environment through careful management of our suppliers, good working conditions, and initiatives to support others less fortunate than us. |
